On my arrival I prticeeded up to his room, and found him lying on the floor, his heed Supported by a pillow. On examination I found a wound in his throat, about five inches in length. A:young man, an ~ .assistant to Mr. rrett, was et the time taking up a branch of the carotid artery,. in a Menner which did him much credit. The windpipe Was completely veveeeds beeettie quite in. - sensible, and in a dying state at the time I entered ; n great quantity of blood had flowed friern the' wound, and deluged thebeti.elothes. On lboking about the room, 1 found a tum bler, • which contained the remains of poisonewhich it would appear the unfortunate Men had drank previous to aliplying the razor to his throat. I have since thylnicallY analyzed the • sediment in the gins% anti discovered that it was of opium and arsenic. I also found on the drawers a•brace of small packet. pistol's, quite new, loaded with polished ball; and from their aPpearinceetehould imagine they had been attempted to be tired, hut had flashed in the pan. It is therefore apparent that the deceased had attempted his life both by poison and ehoote big himself. The' pistols bore the name of " Bond, Corn hill," and seemed to have been purchased that morning.

AGRfeULTURAL REPORT FOR JAN. The open weather, which succeeded to the frost, tvitit which the last month closed, was of short continuance. On the night of the 2d of January it began to freeif , , and . it Continued to do so until the 18th, when a fine gradual thaw commenced, which has again been followed by frost. In the early pert of the month the cold was intense, and the weather boisterou:, with piercing winds, attd storms of snow, more or fess heavy in various part* of the kin4,tom. Of late it has been serene and still, with occasional fogs of heavy , hoar frosts.; , yet enlivened et times by intervening days of clear sunshine. The young Wheats and Winter Tares in open situatiuns• have rather suffered, in appearance at least, from the sharp frosts and winds to which they have been exposed, unprotected for the most hart vering of snow. The tender blades and leaves hare, under these circumstances, assumed something of a rusty appearance ; but •we epithet observe nor hear that the root has any a here been damaged, and we do pot anticipate any eventual injury. Sheep haVe . generally done well doring the dry cold weather, although their subsistenee has been chiefly restricted to hay ; the turnips in upland districts, which are also sheep districts, being quite a failure, and even in the better _soils, turning'out worse in btilk,than the - show of leaves seemed to promise. Where they have. attained to any size, they are also rotting us fast as pos., sible. This seems to he rather an unexpected consequence , of the dry summer. ) that roots and fruits of all descriptions have decayed ,prema turely, even before they were affected, by the frosts. The carting of manure, _and the thrash,. ing of corn, both by hand and machine l are npe 7. rations that have been actively pursued during . the ,continuance of frost ; but. the interruption of most other farming business, cud the entire sus-, pension of vegetation, leave little Cur a reporter to notice of a purely agricultural nature. in the absence of other matter, it may be worth while to take a review of the supply of. the Corn, and Meat Markets, In hondOn—cOmparitig it with that of the preceding year, and of some others at founer period : Tito following little table will fora] the AItRIVALS !.

Flour about 2,2C)0 sacks. On comparing the average of the arrivals in 1811 and 1812, with that of 1824 and 1125, the 'following results appear. The average of the arrivals of Wheat in the former period, exceeds that of the latter by 850942 qrs. in each. year. This is certainly remarkable, considering the great increase of population that has taken place since that time ira the Metropolis ; more Oracularly, as the arrivals of 141 I and 181'2' I consisted, for the most part, of BritiAt Wheat, being for the first year, 364,714 qrs., , and for the Isecond, :191;973 qrs. out of the total tsrrivalS : while in 1825, the British Wheat that arrivedis sittlT 350,705 gra'. f f the arrivals of British 1 ,:Wheat in the port' of London could be considered .o's tiny eriterion of the growth of the .kingdom, it 'would appear that we had not incremad our pro duce of NV heat 'since 1811.12. It is Probable that the arrivals of Wheat and Flour in the putt of Loudon, du not exceed the half of RS' consumption; and therefore, cantrot. be .assumed as a correct index of- price. This will. farther be evident, , if we revert to what haS ' al» ready been stated, that the. arrivals of 1811 and Isl 2, exceeded those- of 1824 arid 1825 ; while the prices 'al the former. years were respectively 94s:' 6d and.4255...1id.;. while those of the latter cannot be above 645. or 655. A.n. other circumstance worthy or remark is, thafout of the abundant arrivals of Wheat in the port of Lontion,, a very 'small proportion has crone from keland.in iit2s, only 8128 quarters. The cir ! Cuitous voyage, asid greater contiguity of Liver pool, and other Oortt l might have account" 'fOr this ; had not the arrivals of Irish, Oats amounted to 391",195 qu: , rters.
